Role of the Partnership Board
Your Partnership Board Works to make services for people with learning disabilities better;
-
Like the support you get to do interesting things each day
-
Support to live independently
-
Opportunities to get around town
-
Have the same chance to use the same services everyone uses.
The Hampshire learning Disability Partnership Board is also working hard to help different people to take part in the work of the Board and the LIGs.We want to work with and represent the views of people with a learning disability,family carers, housing organisations, leisure services, colleges, social services, health services and other groups working with and for people with a learning disability.
The Board is also working to include people from minority ethnic groups - like Chinese, African-Caribbean, Indian or Pakistani people.
The Board asks different services and projects to say how the things they do affect the lives of people with learning disabilities and their families.
The things that these services and projects decide might be about:
-
What choices and support there are for people with learning disabilities and their families
-
How to give everyone a fair chance of getting the help they need
-
How much money is needed to make services better
The Board brings together council departments and health services and other projects that give you support. This means that everyone can share information about what is happening in your local area.
Everyone can agree what needs to be done and can check that the work they are doing fits in with what everyone else is doing.
